How to execute xquery files ? (A simple approach)

Firstly,install Saxon X Query processor from Ubuntu software center or synaptic package manager.
you need to install two separate packages

1. Saxon XSLT Processor (libsaxon-java)
2. Saxon-B XSLT Processor (libsaxonb-java)

• Change your directory that contains all the xml and xquery(.xqy) files.
•  To run the xquery files,just run the below command with your sample.xqy(xquery file) in the terminal.
